I've got my voyager plugged in to my MOTU MIDI express 128. No MIDI messages are being sent. I'm running Snow Leopard and i've got everything cabled correctly in Audio Midi Setup. I've tried different cables and no luck. I've double & triple checked to see if Local Control was turned off, and it was on. I don't know what to do. I don't usually have it connected via MIDI, I record straight up audio. I just want to be able to back my sounds.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks so much ~ maeghan

Does the Motu shows that it is receiving on a channel?

The MOTU shows no sign of receiving any MIDI message from the voyager. I took the same cables, plugged into the same port and plugged them into another synth and MIDI messages passed through.

As for the MIDI channel, the voyager is set to send MIDI on all channels and receive on all channels.

Hm, if you´ve tried everything what the manual says, i would try to get in contact with the Moog support and ask for help. Maybe something is broken.
-edit- One more thing you could try...plug your other synth via midi to your voyager, pick on both synth channel 1 and see if you can play the voyager via the other synth and vice versa.

Thanks for the suggestion, I'll try that. Sadly though, I think something is broken.

Hi,
I have a stupid question: is the MIDI output on on MASTER page 1.2?
Have fun,
Rudi

Rudi, thank you for your stupid question. MIDI out was set to OFF!
